barack obama and hillary clinton went all the way to june. mccain had long since locked up the nomination but obama was still able to come out victorious. these processes of primaries are so good for the party to build a base, build out the candidates, teach them how to think on their feet, answer tough questions. when you go into places like iowa, you're in someone's living room, you can't look to a handler to give you an answer. you have to answer someone's question one-on-one. that's what makes you a better candidate and quite frankly what makes us a better party. these primary processes is what makes us great. >>> let's switch gears a little bit. warn bu warren buffet was asked about 2016. >> what about a female president? >> i hope so. i hope it's hillary clinton. i like what she believes in and extraordinarily able and energetic in pushing those beliefs. i don't see how you can have anybody better qualified. >> i will ask you to get out your crystal ball. what does your gut tell you? will we see clinton run as president in four years? >

republicans have a truce, obama launched a war over abortion. voters overwhelmingly disagreed with those extreme positions, of the president and the democratic party. moving forward, the republican party and its candidates must expose and exploit those vulnerabilities. >> see, if you ask the anti-abortion activists, the only reason republicans lost this year, the only reason mitt romney is not president-elect right now, is because he was not anti-abortion enough. the group says, in its own internal polling of likely swing voters, that polling proves that the reason republicans did so poorly, is because republicans this year were not anti-abortion enough. which is funny, because actual exit polling from the actual election yesterday, shows that 59% of voters think that abortion should be legal in this country, which is the position of president obama and the majority of democratic candidates. and that is a 23-point advantage over the number of voters who think abortion should be illegal, which is the position of mitt romney and most republican ca
